4.2 Time Comparison Test between Spring Compressor and Spring Clamps

The time taken to open and reinstall the spring on vehicle absorber by using the spring clamp is 15 minutes. Meanwhile, by
using spring compressor it took only 6 minutes to open and reinstall the spring on vehicle absorber. Figure 7 represents the
method for opening and installing using spring clamp and spring compressor. There is a difference of 9 minutes when using both
of the equipment in which spring compressor saved more time. Table 3 shows the results of the time comparison test recorded
between spring clamp and spring compressor. In conclusion, spring compressor saves more time compared to spring clamp.

5. Conclusion

From the results, 100% of respondents agreed that spring compressor saves more time compared to spring clamps. 100% of
respondents agreed that using spring compressor is safer and more appropriate during teaching and learning process. 98.3% of
respondents agreed that spring compressor should be used at KVSAS to assist lecturers in teaching absorber system. The result of
the test comparison time is 9 minutes. Compared to the original price of the spring clamp which is RM89.00, the production cost is
reduced to RM32.00. In conclusion, spring compressor achieves the objectives of the study in term of time-saving, safety and
usability at KVSAS.
